The story of Novak Djokovic and his rise to being the No.1 tennis player

When you talk about tennis, there is one name that pops to mind – Novak Djokovic.

The Serbian professional tennis player has won 15 Grand Slam singles titles, five ATP Finals titles, 32 ATP Tour Masters 1000 titles, 12 ATP Tour 500 titles, and has held the No. 1 spot in the ATP rankings for over 240 weeks.

But it wasn’t always this good for Djokovic. During the early years of playing tennis, he came very close to giving up due to the economic crisis in Serbia, his home. But it did not take much time for good things to finally come around.
